Wiiigeratli Starting Year-around Cottage Colony in Bell port Dove-loper of Patchogue Scores , Has Sold Out Interest in Island Coal And Lumber Company, Medford Having erected more than 104 homes during the past several years at Patchogue Shores on South Coun- try road , East Patchogue , William J. Wingerath of Patchogue has started work on. a new development on- the north side of South Countr y road , opposite the Bellport Country club- , Bellport , where it is planned to- erect 110 low-priced , year-round homes. Supplementing the announcement of the new development , Mr. Win- gerath said he has sold out his half interest in the Islan d Coal and Lumber company, Medford , to Clin- ton and Louis Finger , his partners in the lumber enterprise , in order that he might concentrate his efforts on . the two developments. Mr, Wingerath fo unded the Island Coal and Lumber concern 11 years ago, when he purchased the Sigmon Lum ber comany, then situated on Patchogue-Port Jefferson road , about midway between Patchogue and Medford. Six months after the •purchase he moved the yard to the corner of Long Island avenue and Patchogue-Port Je fferson road , Medford. Some time later , the Fin- ger brothers jo ined him. The new Wingerath development in Bellport , a 42-acre tract , having a frontage of 416 feet on South Country road , comprises the former Big'lin and Dr. Barber properties. The tract extends about 4 , 000 feet northward. Tbe new development will be known as Country Club road , the name of the thoroug hfare , 68 feet wide , which will extend through the center of thc- property. The homes to be constructed there will be based on- Federal Housing ad ministration plans and will be erected on plots 75 by 175 feet each at prices ranging from $2 , 990 Uj> . Road-building, property clearing and the construction of tlie foundation for one of two model homes to be erected have already been started on the Country Club tract. The 109-acre Patchogue Shores development , largely the former Litt property, has been one of the out- standing realty accomplishments in Suffolk since it was first started three years ago. It has made remarkable strides in its brief history, new con- struction having progressed with little or no interruption.
